BOSS To Close The Season Saturday at Waynesfield

For the final time in 2023, the stars and cars of the MPD Racing Buckeye Outlaw Sprint Series is set to thrill race fans young and old. The final battle will take place at Waynesfield Raceway Park this Saturday, October 28th in the Goblin Classic paying $2,000 to win the main event along with the modifieds, compacts and trucks in action.

Ricky Lewis has already clinched the tour championship, but there are may other storylines to set to unfold. Obviously, the final championship point standings will take center stage as second place Korbyn Hayslett is only 3 points ahead of Isaac Chapple. Cody Gardner appears to have a lock on the fourth position as Jesse Vermillion will look to hold off Lee Underwood to secure the top 5 spot. Underwood sits only 46 points in front of Brian Ruhlman for the sixth spot. Blake Vermillion, Steve Little and Dustin Ingle round out the current top 10.

Aside from the points chase, two drivers will have a shot at history on Saturday. In the 13 seasons of the BOSS tour, no driver has ever won more than five main events in the same year. California’s Ricky Lewis and Pennsylvania’s Carmen Perigo will be looking for their record-breaking sixth win. However, the current holder of the record five wins is Chapple who will be out to secure the runner-up points finish AND preserve his record.
